Coach Portal
Free for every school

Supporting the community that shapes our future

Most junior coaches are parents giving up their weekends for free. Coach Portal gives them fair subs, every kid's minutes across the season and parent messages, in one app on their phone. Your sports coordinator sees every team in one place.

Live game: the sub card counts down, then the coach marks the swap done

Made for volunteers

Built around the parent who said yes to coaching. Big buttons, clear prompts, nothing to learn before game day.

Free for schools

No cost to the school, the coaches or the families. Your sports coordinator gets a portal for every team.

Any phone, any field

Runs in the phone’s browser. Changes are kept on the phone until they save, so patchy signal at the park doesn’t lose a game.

Coaching kids is the fun part. Keeping track of everything else is what wears volunteers down. So the app does it for them.

A Saturday with Coach Portal

Follow one game day, start to finish

Scroll through a coach’s weekend. The phone shows what they see at each moment.

01Friday night

The draw fills itself in

The next game arrives from the club draw: opponent, time and field, ready before the coach has even thought about it.

02Saturday, 8:40am

Tick who’s here

Tap the kids who turned up. The starting six is picked fairly, starting with whoever sat on the bench at the start last time.

03Kick-off

The sub card does the thinking

A countdown shows when the next sub is due, who comes off and who goes on, with jersey numbers and photos so it works from across the field.

04Second half

Who’s on, who’s next

See the field and the bench with everyone’s minutes so far. Swap one to six at a time, pause for an injury or undo a mistake.

05On the sideline

Whānau follow along live

Grandparents at home and parents running late open the team’s private link and see the clock, who’s on and who’s next. No password, no download, nothing they can change.

06Full time

Minutes even out

Every kid’s season total sits against their fair share. Whoever is behind comes on first next week, so the gaps close game by game.

07Sunday

One message to every family

Text each parent sends the same message to every family separately, so replies come straight back to the coach. Or email everyone by BCC.

More than one sport

Touch today. Futsal too.

Futsal teams get five on court, two halves and a fair turn in goal. The keeper's minutes are counted separately, and the clock stops at half time even if the phone goes to sleep.

Monday morning, for the coordinator

Every team, every sport, one portal

The sports coordinator sets up the school’s teams from the club draw, gives each coach a password and sees which teams need a hand.

01Needs attention

The worst first

Teams with no password yet, kids falling short on minutes and results that were not saved, listed in order of what needs a hand first.

02Every team

The whole school at a glance

Fair play, results and turnout for every team, filtered by sport and grade.

03One team

Drill into any team

Each kid’s minutes, every game and who turned up, without asking the coach for a spreadsheet.

04Team leaders

Coaches and managers

Add teams from the draw, give each a password and text every coach and manager in one go.

Your school, your colours

It looks like your school's own app

Upload your crest, choose your school colours and add your motto. Every screen, for coaches, parents and the coordinator, takes them on. Each school gets its own private copy, with its own teams, families and data.

Riverbend School is a made-up example. Every name, team and score shown on this page is invented.

Coaches sign in

Each team gets its own password. Coaches add their squad or import the team sheet.

03

Families follow along

The coach shares the private parent link. Game day takes care of itself.

Security built in

Children’s records, kept safe

Schools trust us with names, phone numbers and medical notes. Every part of the app is built so only the right people see them, nothing leaves your school’s copy, and nothing gets lost.

Encrypted in transit Everything between the phone and our server is encrypted, the same padlock your bank uses. Browsers are told never to connect any other way.
Passwords locked away Passwords are scrambled one way before they are saved, so they can never be read back, not even by us.
Guessing blocked After a few wrong passwords, sign-in slows right down, so nobody can keep guessing.
Locked-down server Records, photos and settings are kept where the web can’t reach them, and every request is checked before anything changes.
Backed up nightly Each school’s data is backed up every night, and a snapshot is taken before every update.
Safe updates New versions are health-checked as they go live and roll back automatically if anything looks wrong.
Your own copy Every school gets its own separate app and database. One school’s data is never mixed with another’s.
No ads, no trackers No third-party scripts or advertising. Usage stats store no IP addresses and are deleted after 90 days.
Who sees what
Coordinator Every team, every coach and every result across the school. Signs in separately with a shorter session.
Coaches & managers Their own team only, including contacts and medical notes for their players.
Parents A private, read-only link: the next game, live play and minutes. No contact details, and nothing can be changed.

Free for your school. Easier for every coach.

We set it up with your school's crest and colours, load your teams from the club draw, and hand your sports coordinator the keys. Your volunteer coaches just sign in and coach.
